Benny,

thanks, I think I'm using incorrect terminology, I'm sorry, basically, I
wanted to temporarily remove the Dovecot default requirement for pop and
imap access to be secure/encrypted (I have some mail clients from 'old'
server attempting to access email on new server, and failing due to
only-encrypted access on new server)

and, yes, by commenting out " ssl = required" it allowed the 'not properly
configured for new server' client to access
